Optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) signals from quartz can be used to determine when
sedimentary archives were deposited. OSL dating uses the accumulation of energy stored in …

Tsunami deposits are the primary source of information on (past) large tsunami events and
thereby are crucial for accurate hazard assessments. Tsunami deposits studies have …

This paper reviews the evidence for onshore sedimentary imprints of tsunami inundation
known from the geological record of the Atlantic basin. The central aim of the paper is to offer …

The analysis of particle size, shape, size, and their spatial arrangement (ie fabric) in a
sedimentary deposit plays a significant role in their interpretation in terms of transport …

Standardizing the signature of tsunami deposits has been identified as a major limitation for
the identification of paleo-tsunami deposits. This limitation mostly arises from the strongly …

As many as seven tsunamis from the past 8000 years are evidenced by sand sheets that rest
on buried wetland soils at Badabalu, southern Andaman Island, along northern part of the …

This chapter offers an overview of the current knowledge of the southwest Iberian tsunami
geological record. Specifically, this chapter summarizes three decades of research on …

Offshore tsunami deposits have the potential to substantially improve our understanding of
long-term tsunami hazard. This may be particularly true for the Portuguese Algarve coast …

To evaluate the potential of optical dating (OSL) in establishing a proper tsunami chronology
for Phra Thong Island (SW Thailand), the method was applied to a suite of tsunamigenic and …

The Shirasuka lowlands, located on the Enshu-nada coast of central Japan, record evidence
for numerous extreme wave events. Here we test the applicability of using the luminescence …
